  1. From Trang Truong about their three photos above from Stormy Point Village:

    “We love Stormy Point in Branson so much that we brought our families from Virginia to a weekend getaway for a fun-tastic time. They had so much fun they want to stay there for a week of vacationing in Branson. The photos show us along with our extended family.”

  2. From Michele Switzer about her photo above from Peppertree Atlantic Beach:

    “While staying at Festiva’s Peppertree Resort in Atlantic Beach, our family enjoyed a visit to Fort Macon. Shown on this photo is one of the stairways leading down into the protective fort chambers.”

  3. From Jessie Switzer, age 14, about her photo above from Peppertree Atlantic Beach:

    “After walking the beautiful, white sands of Atlantic Beach, I arrived with my mother and grandmother at the pier. We stood on the pier over the crashing, white-capped waves and took in a spectacular sunset.”

  4. From Kathy Arthur about her photo at Blue Ridge Village:

    “My name is Kathy Arthur and I became a new member of the Adventure Club while visiting Blue Ridge Village in Banner Elk, North Carolina, in September. I visited the resort with my aunt and best friend, and we all felt that this was the best vacation that we have ever taken. The weather was wonderful and the scenery superb. We visited all of the local attractions, including the Biltmore Estate, and will make plans to return to the area in the future. The resort was very comfortable and relaxing and the staff was all very nice and friendly. This picture was taken in front of the Manager’s Office by a staff member on the last day of our visit. During this trip, we made many wonderful memories and with my new membership in the Adventure Club, we are hoping to make many more.”

  5. From Jim & Carrie Lewis about their two photos from the Cabins at Green Mountain:

    “The first photo is from our first day at The Cabins Of Green Mountains in Branson, Mo. The second picture was taken on “Ride the Ducks” in Branson.”

  6. From Kevin & Sandy Warden about their picture above at Rangeley Lake Resort:

    “Our home timeshare is at Rangeley Lake Resort. We were there the third week in July ’09. We spent an afternoon with friends kayaking on the Magalloway River. It was awesome, relaxing and energizing. There is nothing like seeing Maine from the middle of the river!”

  7. From William J. Baker about his five photos of the Banner Elk area:

    “These pictures were taken in the Blue Ridge Mountains during a wonderful two weeks at Blue Ridge Village in Banner Elk, N.C., in October 2009.”

  8. From Roberta Winarick about her photo above taken in Canada:

    This photo was taken at the entrance to Canyon Ste. Anne in Beaupre, Canada. We traded our timeshare this year for a condo in Beaupre (Condorama Int’l at Mont Ste. Anne), about 25 miles north of Quebec City, Canada. My husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary by having our son and daughter-in-law, along with our two grandchildren, accompany us on this vacation. The condo was wonderful and the location was ideal. We were able to visit Quebec City a few times; we also enjoyed the beautiful outdoors north of the city by hiking to waterfalls, taking day trips to the Ile de Orleans and small picturesque towns, and going on a whale watching cruise. It was a perfect vacation–thank you, Festiva, for making this possible!

  9. From Ann Garwood about her photos of Peppertree Atlantic Beach:

    “This rainbow was in May 2009. It actually was a double rainbow. The first picture is my husband, Terry Garwood, looking out over towards the ocean at the rainbows. The next one is the other side of the rainbow. The third picture is the sunset in the opposite direction of the rainbow. All three of these pictures were taken on a digital camera and HAVE NOT been altered in anyway.”
